7. This is a very interesting national debate. Where should we start and stop college funding support?

I think about a friend who had plenty of money to send his kids to any school they wanted but when one wanted to go into Parks and Rec as a major and cited the career goal of being a camp counselor for life, mom and dad balked when the college she chose was a high ranking private college with $40k/ year in tuition in a city expensive to live in. The argument that a good liberal education has value to society has proven merits over the last century. But when the big paychecks and business interests mostly only value very niche and highly technical degrees, when should mom/dad, or we the people, fund that anthropology or archeology degree that statistically has little support in the marketplace and benefit to greater society is hard to measure at best? Do we put a quota on it and say we'll only support X degrees in this major per year or only support high demand/need majors or what? And do we put a low dollar limit on less in demand degrees and maybe fund higher demand degrees more generously. Given the dollars involved, and the continued value of college education beyond the mere degree major, this discussion is worth having beyond the simple debt relief component we are talking about now.
